Energy-related mobile applications can enable better management of renewable energy production, energy consumption and water usage in real-time. My company’s Building EKG™ application, for example, is designed to help businesses access information anywhere at any time, enabling key decision makers to make on-demand changes across multiple platforms and at multiple facilities, irrespective of location.

Getting to net-zero carbon emissions is a difficult challenge for any building.

Having faced this decision, I recommend the divide-and-conquer approach: Choose net-zero electrical or thermal, and after achieving one, tackle the other.

The 31 Tannery project has set a new benchmark and opened new horizons in solving energy issues by being the first to break the net-zero electric barrier with commercial buildings. It was accomplished in a commercially viable manner with low-maintenance, easy-to-manage systems and a projected payback of 5 to 7 years.
